Judith Carol Layton

In loving memory of Judith (Judy) Layton, who passed away peacefully at her residence in Atwater, CA at the age of 81, on August 11, 2025.

A family rock, devoted wife to Al of 62 years, loving mother, amazing Nana, sister, sister-in-law, great-grandmother, generous aunt, daughter, cousin, mother-in-law and a true friend. 

A gentle and attentive listener who enjoyed many hobbies including reading, baking, doll collecting, bowling, painting, craft making, gardening and spoiling her family. She also enjoyed playing bingo and looked forward to traveling annually to the local casinos with her nieces & sister-in-law. Many family members considered her as their second mom.

Thank you for sharing all that you are in a life well lived and even more loved.

Born Judith Carol Wood on November 15, 1943, in Santa Clara.  She met her husband-to-be at age 14, and was by his side until her passing.
